NorthWest Spotted Thread

I saw a red lotus going west on 512 today around 1230pm-1pm while i was going east. =. I tried to follow and catch up but slower traffic wasn't helping. Just wanted to know if that person was on here. I didn't get a good look but I want to say it was an exige. Just wondering if you were on here.

Was that you I saw headed into Renton off of 405 (over a week ago)? I saw a red elise, but kept getting cut off when I tried to catch up.

Actually I'm kinda glad for the NW specific thread. I don't read the linked thread, too general. I'm pretty sure I wasn't spotted in Hollywood. =)

Might have been. I was there meeting up with some old nissan buddies. Im usually around Tacoma area as i work and live here. I seldomly take the Elise up north unless i have something to do.

it would have been great to finally meet some of the NW locals but unfortunately my car will be going into storage on Wednesday. My job is sending me to Korea for a year.

Ohhh haha I am not talking about the RUssian and Filipina women right off the base =) i was talking about american women on base. Well I was there in High School so the high schoolers may be off limits depending on your "range" haha. But they were nice as well

What spoiler do you have on your car? I thought I saw one on there

Bought the car with the spoiler already installed. Not sure what kind, still debating whether to take it off or not. Previous owner was a Navy guy from Bellingham i think. I been lurking around here for awhile hoping i'd see his old posts.

*happily married with two kids. Gotta keep my nose clean.
